Donatella Romanelli
Donatella's Story
DONA GREEN
Donatella Romanelli was born and raised in Gemona del Friuli (Udine), Italy. After studying at the Art Institute "Sello" in Udine, her artistic journey continued in Bologna in 1981 when she decided to simultaneously attend the DAMS and The Academy of Fine Arts. Her love of color was very clear and obvious and from her clothing, which adding to her height, made it impossible to go unnoticed. Her paintings were influenced by a colorful era of dense cultural stimuli that touched many aspects of life during the 1980’s. Today DONA paints landscapes, forests, mountains, GEMONA and CARNIA. Surrounded by this woodland context she has decided to devote herself to Nature by direct observation in all of its lights. The love of the unspoiled environment that exists in South Friuli, inspired her at a time when Nature is repeatedly damaged.
